The Country Editor.

There is an idea in the minds of
many who ought to know better thai
the ''country editor stands on the low
est platform of the profession, and tha
he who is employed in any capacity,
no matter how humble, on metro
politan journal is his superior. There
is no greater mistake. An editor who
has held important chairs in metropoli
tan offices, and who has the reputation
of having been successful, remarked /:

he must discuss agriculture and anarchy
with equal precision he must be fluent

to things Of low estate; in short, ht
must be an "all-round man." 1t is thin
that makes the position of a country

Popular Election Of President.
CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT TO BE OF
FERED BY MASH OR BUOKALEw.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 11-Elther Mr..
Buckalew or Mr.. Maish will shortly
offer resolution proposing to 40
amend the Constitution that tie Presi-
dent and Vlce-president will be elected
by direct vote OF the people. Tn
amendment proposed will provide that
the prople shall vote by states as now
The total vote of each state shall b.

quotient shall be the electoral unit,
and these electoral votes, instead OF
going in state blocks to the candidate
carrying the state, shall in each state bt
divided between the candidates in pro
portion to the vote cast for each.
This is substantially the ame ndment
proposed by Mr.. Maish in resolution
which he offered in the Forty fifth
Congress. While he had the matter
in hand at that time Mr. BuckaleW
published an article on the subject anc
at Mr.. Maish's request prepared the re

Tariff Reform.

The message of the president urging
upon congress prompt and judicious
revision of the tariff has met with a
hearty approval in all parts OF the
country. Republicans as well as
democrats have signlfied their appro-
baton of the Presidents course. Pro-
minent manufacturers have Joined
their voice with the general mass in
commenting the sentiments and sug-
gestions of the message. The Presi-
dents logic, like the spear of Ithuriel,
needed but to touch the demon of poll
tical fasehood to discover him in all
his hideous deformity.
The latent sentiment in favor of tar
if reform in the northwestern states
has been especially aroused by the
caEdid and forcible words of the Pre-.
sident. The states of Iowa and Min
nesota are no longer republican. The
tariff issue has brought them into the
democratic column where they will he
speedily Joined by the state Michigan.
Some of the abest and most widely
circulated republican journals in the
northwest, notably the Chicago Iri-
bune, have pronounced il the strong
est terms in favor of the Presidents
tariff policy. The Tribune criticises
Blaine's letter on the Message very
sharply and declares that it is the
worst mistake Blaine ever made. In
order to appreciate the full effect OF
this blow to the presidentian prospects
of that ambitious statesman, it must be
remembered that the Tribune was one
of the earliest and most persistent ad
vocates of his nomination and election
Among the prominent manufactur
ers who have endorsed the Presidenti
tariff views is Mr.. A. B. Farquhar, o
York, this state. Mr. Farquhar is {
lifelong republican, but he believes
the time has come when the oppress
i've and unnecessary war duties leyiet
in the tariff should be reduced so tha
industry may be disburdened Of tn,
incubus they have laid upon it. Their
are many manufacturers who share tn
sentiments of Mr.. Farquhar aud the.
will be heard from in the ensuin,
presidential canvass. 1t must be any
thing but comforting to the republican
monopoly organs to discover that with
in the ranks Of their party there is
formidable element which will suppoi
the President in his efforts TO secure
just and iudicious reform of the tariff
Their uulatious of Stree trade" an
their p'etensions of sympathy wit
''infanl industries" will avail nothin
to hold this element to their part,
They will rant and rave and roar
vain. The die is cast. Tariff refor
is fixed tact.-Patriot.

John l.. Sullivan, the Boston pugl-

in London. With great condescension
he permitted his majesty, the Prince
of Wales, to be introduced to him.
Brute force seems to pay better than
brains nowadays. A recent dispatch
from London says:

plump wasted young woman who sells
gloves, flowers or other trash in the

The Supreme Court of the United
States has recently rendered decision
in which it sustains the validity of
prohibitory laws The cases went up
from Kansas, and the opinion overrules
the Circuit Judge and upholds the
right of prohibition without compen-
sation, thus settling all questions as to
the constltutionality of prohibitory
laws on that point. Seven judges ap-
proved the decision, aud one dissented.

We have a Presidential campaign

in overwhelming defeat. Now the

THE WEEK OF PRAYER.
Interesting Meeting at the Second
Bapfiss Church Last Might.

A large congregation assembled at the
Second Baptist church last night. repre-
sentlng all OF the white Baptists and some
~ the other churches, and embracing q
large proportion OF the Christian workers
OF the city.
In the absence OF DR.. Hatcher (who bad
been called to Williamsburg TO assist In an
ordInation) Rev. J. B. Hutson, OF the
Pine.Sireet church, led the meeting with
his usual good taste and consecrated tact.
DR.. J. William Jones and Mr.. j. B. Win
ston led in prayer for Gods bPssing on the
meeting, and for Jesus TO cCaae into and
abide Ia our homes.
Rev. w. J. Shipmap read several selec-
tlOns Of scriptures, showing that when
Jesus was on earth be visited the homes OF
the people--upon festive occasions as So
cial visitor. and as sympathizer in the
suiierings and sorrows OF the people. He
clearly brought out how Jesus graced with
his presence and honored with his first mlra-
Gle the marriage feast in Cana OF Gallilee,
dipcd with Zacheus, went TO Lewis feast,
mingled socially in seasons OF Joy 10
the home at Bethany, or went to
the house OF Jairus or the home
at Beihsny in the hour OF their
bitter affection 10 convert "the house OF
mourning" into house OF ioy and glad
ness. He tenderly and earnestly brought
out that wblle Jesus Is not now on earth In
human form He Is still able. ready, and
willing to enter and TO bless the homes OF
men. He spoke earnestly and effectively OF
the blessing Of having Jesus in the home,
and made powerful appeal to all to see to
It that Jesus is in their homes and that they
strive TO introduce him in the homes oil
others.
After singing verse OF "Come to My
Heart, Lord Jesus" Rev. DR.. S. A. Good.
win read from the story OF Jacob to show
that q father may be so eager TO make
money, and q mother so eager TO secure So
cial position for their children as to neglect
their soul culture. He spoke pointedy and
strongly OF the danger OF the neglect OF
home culture, and eloquently insisted that
parents should see 10 the proper govern
ment Of their homes, the education OF their
children-the literature OF their homes. the
spirit OF their homes. and the religion OF
their homes.
Rev. DIR. Landrum told two touching in
cidents that had come under his observa-
ton recently-One Of a home OF sorrow
without Jesus and the other OF dying
Christian mother OF his church who joy
fully left her little children in the arms OF
Jesus with the full assurance OF faith that
they were "safe" there. He based upon
these incidents powerful appeal for Chris
tian bones.
Professor Edmund Harrison made fer
vent prayer for Gods blessing on our
homes.
The meeting last night seemed to make a
profound impression on the large crowd
present. tears flowed freely, and there
were earnest aud anxious hearts who will
carry the matter to family altars and places
OF secret prayer.
